Senior Member bayscholar Posted March 15, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted March 15, 2007 hey stumper, I know from my own experience HT1 that months 6-8 brought tremendous manageability to my hair. Also it seems that now my hair blends in old/new much better then during month 5 hands down (I 2 had concerns of that fact) hair quality should improve for you greatly leading up to 1year and then continue till 18months from what I have read...again you picked a world class surgeon give it time and you should be money.

Senior Member NervousNelly Posted March 15, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted March 15, 2007 You are still in that awkward stage. You have to give it more time to fully grow and then to soften more as what you would normally see in the frontal area. What you are experiencing is normal. Sucks but normal.

Bill - Seemiller Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 stumper, As people have said...give it some time. It takes between 12-18 months for the transplanted hair to mature and become like the rest of your native hair. So yes, it is normal. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
